Hooked on Books 4 Star Review
Meg Michaels has a habit of falling for Mr. Wrong. After she breaks up with her fiancé she runs right into the arms of her first love. A weekend fling ends up with her pregnant but Jason is married with kids. He wants nothing to do with Meg and the new baby.
At a party that her best friend is throwing for her brother in law, Meg meets handsome Theo. He has returned home from the war. He was seriously injured and is home to recover.
Meg and Theo are drawn to each other. Even though both of them have many complications in their lives, they end up falling for each other.
Theo has lost his leg and has serious PTSD. He is struggling with his pain and rehab but he definitely loves Meg and her unborn baby.
Meg is trying to figure out what love really is and has a lot of family issues to deal with.
I really enjoyed this story. I loved Theo! It was nice to have a hero who wasn’t completely perfect.
I struggled with liking Meg however. She just seemed to latch on to every guy she was with. She is the one who really needed to get her act together.
Overall this was a great love story and I recommend it to be read.
When she's not reading or writing, she spends her time watching extreme survival shows and taking long walks after nightfall. She has an unnatural love of high places, but still regrets the time she skydived solo. She believes some things are better left to the imagination. She resides in Austin with her family and a pack of wild dogs.
thanks so much for hosting and reviewing!
